An elastic runtime environment is similar to a Secure Agent group, except it uses containers and Kubernetes orchestration to provide elastic scaling to optimize resource management.
Note: Effective in the July 2025 release, elastic runtime environments are available for preview. Preview functionality is supported for evaluation purposes but is unwarranted and is not supported in production environments or any environment that you plan to push to production. Informatica intends to include the preview functionality in an upcoming release for production use, but might choose not to in accordance with changing market or technical circumstances. For more information, contact Informatica Global Customer Support .
An elastic runtime environment is ideal for environments with fluctuating workload demands and the need to control costs. The environment supports elastic scaling through APIs and customizable controls. You can quickly deploy this environment in your AWS cloud environment and customize the scaling by adding new nodes or enhancing existing ones.
Note: Unlike Secure Agent groups, you can't share an elastic runtime environment with sub organizations.
